A MAN who escaped from a prison in southwest China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region nearly five weeks ago has been caught by police in neighboring Guangdong Province.
Li Shengrong, 27, was caught on Wednesday night in Dongguan, a manufacturing town in Guangdong, a spokesman with the prison administration in Guangxi said yesterday.
Li, who was serving a six-year jail term for robbery, escaped from a prison in Beihai City on January 31, after a visit to the prison clinic.
He claimed he was sick and was accompanied by a warden, a prison official said.
When he was escorted back to his cell, still handcuffed, Li caught the warden off guard and disappeared into a dense thicket of sugarcane on the prison farm.
He then scaled a 2-meter fence and escaped.
Prison workers later found Li's abandoned medical records and uniform near the fence.
A manhunt was launched and a 50,000 yuan (US$7,353) reward offered for information leading to Li's capture.
Meanwhile, police in Heilongjiang Province are still hunting for Chen Congcong, 21, who escaped from a Harbin jail on February 23.
